6 Months Spent Making A 3D-Printed Fully Posable Action Figure or Why The Future Is Going To Be Built One 3D-Printed Thing At A Time

From 3ders.org....

"Aaron Thomas has spent the past six months developing a 3D printed 10" action figure consisting of 400 independent parts. Each part was printed separately and assembled by hand. His creation is named "Ronin" and it has over 50 articulated joints and LED electronics, making it a fully posable figurine. Thomas used an Ultimaker personal 3D printer to make his design reality."

My questions is: why will kids want to go to the toy store when they can design and create the exact toy they want, instead of settling on a compromise?
